In this study we examine the performance of a network real-time kinematic (NRTK) positioning service at high latitudes (≈70 deg N). The NRTK used is the Norwegian national positioning service “CPOS”. To test the performance, 6 geodetic quality receivers were deployed at various distances from the...

Maritime transport accounts for around 3% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions (Well-to-Wake). These GHG emissions must be reduced by at least 50% in absolute values by 2050 to contribute to the ambitions of the Paris agreement signed in 2015. Switching to Zero-carbon fuels made...

The development of Open hatch carriers (OHC) dates back to the early 1960s linked to transport of newsprint from the paper mills along the coast of British Columbia (Canada) to the news-printers in San Francisco and Los Angles (USA). Prior to that, conventional general cargo ships, tween-deck liners...

In the context of growing need for energy and the shift to low-carbon energy sources, innovating solutions in the renewable energy sector are encouraged. Currently, hydropower is the largest source of renewable energy in the world and is expected to play a major role in future power systems. Many...

The Recreational Craft Platform (RCP, Norwegian: Fritidsbåtplattformen) is being developed to collect and merge available data on recreational craft accidents and thereby enable stakeholders to actively take measures to achieve the vision. The Norwegian Maritime Authority (NMA) will be the owner of...

Few scientific publications discuss the vision of the water-smart society. Our paper addresses this gap, outlining key principles of urban water–smartness and translating them into five strategic objectives to support decision-making at the local government level. Based on recent literature and...

Background: Within modern health systems, the possibility of accessing a large amount and a variety of data related to patients’ health has increased significantly over the years. The source of this data could be mobile and wearable electronic systems used in everyday life, and specialized medical...

The data presented here were collected independently for 6 real buildings by researchers of different institutions and gathered in the context of the IEA EBC Annex 81 Data-driven Smart Buildings, as a joint effort to compile a diverse range of datasets suitable for advanced control applications of...

The shift towards salmon farming in more exposed locations has been an industry-wide trend for the last decade. Moving fish farms to locations with high water currents and waves can improve production by providing more stable temperatures and water quality, as well as reducing the negative...

The goal of SMARTFISH H2020 is to develop, test and promote a suite of high-tech systems for the EU fishing sector, thereby optimizing resource efficiency, improving automatic data collection for fish stock assessment, provide evidence of compliance with fishery regulations and reduce the ecological...
